  1. We think alike! I've been wondering about these things since I saw them on ammunitiontogo.com as well.
  2. Just got my first CZ a P07 a while back and I am now a CZ fan. Enjoy the P01!

    Late night TV

    Fallon would be pretty good if he didn't look like a high school kid meeting a girl for the first time. He can't deliver a single, clear line to save his life. Which is sad because he seems to have good, original ideas. He just can't present them well. Conan is a great writer but he needs more Andy on his show to balance him out. He's like an aggressive Robin Williams. Used to like Letterman but he started getting so political and negative he grates on me now. Leno was always better than average but nothing spectacular. A good interviewer.
  4. Depends on your situation. My house is small 1000 sq. feet. and not very open so a long gun of any sorts is not the best. If someone was coming in unannounced I wouldn't even have the time or clearance to use the shotty. I keep mine un-chambered safety on, simply for the fact of the size of my house and that I have 4 kids all under 7 yrs old. Handgun is the way to go inside. Now if I have any time, prior indication, or outside disturbance I'm getting the shotty ready, but if I am responding inside it's the handgun.
  5. HAHA, you Jerk! That is a great movie. "I found out what my special purpose was for!":koolaid:
  6. I enjoy them. Not the greatest shows ever made but is classic Disney.
  7. While a cute answer, I don't think American is hereditary lineage.
  8. I personally like OWB with as much of a full size pistol as I can. I had several XD's that I carried both IWB and OWB, but like you say they are a little thick. I really liked the size and capacity of the Glock 19, but wanted a hammer fired SA only type pistol. I ended up carrying a CZ P07 OWB. To me it is a perfect balance of weight, size, capacity, and comfort. BTW - IWB is a commitment. New clothes, finding the right holster, cover garments, belts, Right gun, right location, etc. While OWB has similar issues it is not nearly as involved as IWB. Trial and error.
  9. Yeah! I even have the Fess Parker movies that my kids like to watch.
  10. Scottish, English, Cherokee, and probably a few other European links in there as well. Pretty much a normal American mutt.
  11. Same as in Kenya, Zimbabwe, Tanzania. They closed off hunting until they started realizing their herds were becoming more problematic than they were growing. Guess what! They needed hunting to help control and balance the ecosystem. It is good that they are managing their hunts now instead of turning people loose. It is also a HUGE boon to their economies.
  12. I just got a H&R Pardner Pump, which is a clone of the 870, for under $200 from Dicks. It is every bit as good as the 870 (minus finish). BTW Remington, H&R, Hawk are all owned by the same parent company.
  13. Only 28K!!!! So he can't remember the whole evening but he does remember only authorizing $300. Hmm!

    S&W M&P headache...

    I'm pretty sure the M&P I had read in the manual to not dry fire. Some were even coming from the factory with snap caps.
  15. There's a rather long thread on this already. Great story though.

    ARvsAK

    Never heard anything specifically bad or good about Classic. I am very hesitant about a $599 milled reciever AK. They are usually a whole lot more than that. Personally I like a stamped receiver better on an AK. The milled is extra heavy, prone to breakage, and parts fitment is a little more difficult. The VZ is excellent but keep in mind parts are just now coming in and may be limited in the rare event you need spares and AK mags will not work. Other than that they are top line, technically not AK variants. It's an entirely different system internally.
  17. I've been to Kenya and my brother has been to SA, Kenya, Tanzania, Ivory Coast, etc quite a bit. I/we always went through London and used Air Emirates through Dubai into Africa. Flying Air Emirates coach is like flying any American airliners first class for half the price. Very nice. If you go to Kenya/Tanzania there are a number of lodges on the edges of the Masa Mari that can be had dirt cheap if you know who to ask. Try to go through your hotel in Nairobi for connection. Just be careful and stay with a group. DO NOT go to Mombasa.

    ARvsAK

    I've had several of each and I keep coming back to the AK. I'm also no long range MOA type shooter. The AK is significantly less expensive in every aspect, more reliable, and a heck of a lot of fun. It's like the girl next door. The AR is more like a high maintenance woman that constantly demands top of the line accessories and gets a lot of "headaches".
  19. Seems I have used that argument before! If you look at the underside of the receiver where the trigger comes out you will notice either one or two "slots" at the front corners of the trigger hole. If there is one (most semi AK's) it will have one thus single hook. If there are two then you will need a double hook. IIRC the double hook is mainly for fully AK's although some semi's have double hooks.
  20. I understand. My feelings are that no one has ever been even charged with a 922r issue much less arrested, because it (by the ATF's own admission) is unenforceable. It has more to do with satisfying import issues than personal ownership. That being said it is fairly easy to make them complaint and not worry about it.
  21. On a side note, there is hardly anyway to know where parts came from on an AK as very little is stamped.
  22. Well, if you read it in the context of the full comment it's not exactly as it sounds. The first part of his comment is actually reasonable. The second part he just lost his mind. http://www.wallsofthecity.net/images/robrussell1.jpg
  23. I though it was the other way around. I generally carry OWB like other have said with it covered. That being said I have 3 carry types I use. Mostly is OWB but I also use IWB, mostly in the summer for deep concelament, and I also have a Maxpedition Fat Boy for those other times when on body is not the best scenario. I will say I much prefer on the body for numerous reasons.
  24. Wouldn't it be something if HK have an under the table deal with the Mexicans just to stick it to us Americans?:D
  25. I've used a Dremmel on Saiga conversions and polishing feed ramps on Hi-Powers, but I wouldn't use them for routing cleaning. Kinda like using a flame thrower to start a camp fire. It's really cool until you realize not only did you start the camp fire but also burned down half the forest.
